Northwest Dive Club

The daughter and I are going to be taking advance open water class next month. The two dive lights we have are the Sealife Sea Dragon 900s (900 lumen 10.5degree beam) and the DGX 800 ( 800lumen 8degree beam). Does anybody know if these would be sufficient enough for the night dive part of the class? I know there are better lights but don’t planning on many night dives for now because I work night shift.

Either of those should be plenty bright enough. For Puget Sound I like a tight beam for signaling with a lot of spill out from the hotspot, both of those have a reflector, so they should be decent. I think I'd go with the DGX one if it was me, tighter beam, more battery options (18650's are in basically everything) Just use good judgement when charging the Li-ion cells. I also prefer twist on/off to buttons, but that's personal preference.

Thanks Jake that’s good to know. We will use what we have for now then for the class. If I’m ever able to get off night shift and we can start doing night dives I’ll look into brighter lights.
